On Sunday evening as the heat began to slowly depart the North Bay, a group of 100 or so amassed at the San Rafael Community Center to partake in the 3rd annual Access 4 Bikes film festival. There was a nice, close-knit crew that arrived, tasty free beer and wine from a handful of breweries/vineyards, and good, healthy fresh food. I was incredibly nervous at first, someone unsure how my film’s premiere would be received by the crowd. An hour or so after eaating, tossing a few back, and easing the tension with some nice conversation with friends, my previous anticipations dimmed on cue with the lights as the footage began to roll.
There were a few international entries from Ireland and Poland, some other local shorts about Jacquie Phelan, Forest City (to be explored in detail in another post), and grom unicyclers, and the feature Freedom Riders.
If you didn’t make it, consider attending next year. If you’re curious how my Sixer at Six vid turned out, here you go. Enjoy…..

I don’t have any photos from the event, but it was a nice turnout and there was a ton of positive energy flowing in all directions. Nice work of your flick!
